Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl: Karan Johar Caught On Twitter Army's Radar For Allegedly 'Insulting IAF' In Janhvi Kapoor's Film

#Karan_Johar_Insults_IAF was trending on the micro-blogging site on Thursday (August 13) claiming that Dharma productions portrayed gender bias and insulted the IAF in their film.

New Delhi: Filmmaker Karan Johar has recently been trolled by the Twitter army for negatively portraying the work culture of the Indian Air Force academy in the Janhvi Kapoor starrer biopic movie 'Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl'. #Karan_Johar_Insults_IAF was trending on the micro-blogging site on Thursday claiming that the Dharma productions portrayed gender bias and insulted the IAF. The harsh comments against the filmmaker came a day after the Indian Air Force sent a letter to Dharma Production, Netflix and the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) objecting certain scenes and dialogues in the movie and trailer over portrayal of IAF in a undue negative light. The defence wing in its letter stated that the filmmakers had initially promised to represent IAF with authenticity and make all efforts to ensure that the film helps to inspire the next generation of IAF officers. On this, several netizens called out Johar. A user even demanded legal action against producers, filmmakers for attempting to malign the reputation of Indian Airforce. "We demand legal action against producer of the film #GunjanSaxenaTheKargilGirl who has deliberately tried to malign the reputation of Indian Airforce by spreading misinformation of Gender Bias in Armed Forces," a user tweeted.
